Redesign - Blog Posts
Small redesign for Chang. I’m not super sure if it’s a good choice to make a Chinese character only ever wear a tangzhuang. Then again, I’m not Chinese, nor did I live in this time period. If someone could inform me further, please do
His new outfit is influenced by Pathologic, I will admit, but it manages to make him look professional and sleek. I’m not using the tangzhuang simply because I don’t know if I should.
Again, this is a cry for help: please educate me about his original outfit if you know anything or know anyone
Spiderweb Spiderweb Spiderweeeeeeeeeeeeee Heheh otter lady
Cybelle also started off as a throwaway line. I designed her with the intent to make her sort of Toriel-esque.
Cybelle runs the shelter in town, which acts as the home base for characters who don't have a home of their own (i.e. Clifford, Kane). She also has some history with Todd, which I will go into in a future post.
She doesn't do too much in the story, she's just a supporting character who puts a roof over the head of the others. And of course, she ends up encountering the paranormal too. Specifically a certain spider-looking thing( which is honestly the one good bit of horror from this game since everything else can just be chalked up to Samuel tripping balls).
AND WE'RE BACK!
Meet Fen Liu. Probably one of the most changed characters from the source material.
Liu was a throwaway line (and also a man) so I classify her as an original character. Liu starts the story as the maid of Gretchen and Alfred, who treat her as nothing but a servant.
Liu speaks English quite well, but chooses to speak only Chinese to spite Gretchen. She plans to take down the Byrnes family, take everything from them, and leads a group of other residents of Echo with the intent of taking down the people in power.
She becomes the leader of this group after something paranormal happens - because this is Echo, paranormal things happen all the time - which earns her a scar over the nose, newfound freedom, and also general plot relevance. She also gets an axe to protect herself.
Down with the patriarchy, thank you if you saw this and liked it.
And here’s her second portrait
Whoohoo more spiderweb content!
Meet Saffron Windsor Lloyd! She's a supernatural entity who frequently visits Dahlia. She appears only to Dahlia, appearing when nobody else would be able to see her.
But more often than not, Lloyd provides an additional perspective on Dahlia's visions of the future (will be fleshing that out in a future post). She usually just whispers into the ears of the Byrnes family and their associates, giving them a nudge in the direction to achieve their goals, whether they are malicious or noble. Her motivation just seems to push people along their paths. A true chaotic neutral.
Bonus art of Cynthia and Dahlia. Gonna give Miss Byrnes a love interest every route simply because lesbians deserve the world.
Several revisions to portraits
Samuel’s earring has been moved so it’s a stud, and the same has happened to Cynthia as well as the removal of some unnecessary shading, Lillian’s old one was poorly drawn, and Chang, Nik and Todd’s were just traced over sprites. On top of that, Todd has gone from purple to grey, because he’s a cop and they unfortunately do not have purple privileges.
A final batch of characters. Now to write what they all do
Continued from last post
Character portraits for Spiderweb. Some of these require revisions due to being traced over actual sprites.
Your girl’s been redesigning
Meet Gray, Telescope Boy, Ciel, and Hayseed
SHE LOOKS SO MUCH BETTER NOW, now she looks like an actual hitwoman, and it’s very pleasing to the eyes.
EXTRA STUFF:
The reason why I redesigned her is because, her old design looked a bit basic, not having that hitwoman look and traditional look with her night-dweller demon look, so I just wanted to import those things into her design, kinda gives you the hitwoman vibes (kinda?)
And that in character design clothing can tell you a lot about the character itself. (Idk but sometimes clothing design can tell stories about a character)
anyways ima work on fireaxe’s redesign along with torcher, but maybe I’ll post some clothing that the different species of demons wear. Who knows?
((Also for my followers who have started following me and supporting me from the start when I started this blog, thank you!! I appreciate your support! I dunno how I can repay y’all 🥹))
I'm redesigning racist cartoons characters that's a short summary watch the whole thing to understand better
I redesigned charlie and alastor I gave both of them visible hoofs because I can't imagine wearing shoes with hoofs 😭😭😭 I saturated alastors color pallet because it feels more 1920s now. I GAVE HIM A TAIL :33
charlie on the other hand I mostly changed colors of her design, making her suit more pink so she comes of as less intimidating and I couldn't have resisted giving her ginger hair based on that one Lucifer painting
angel dust redesign because I'm mad he doesn't have butt fluff also I had soooooo much trouble trying to fit him in my artystle and I still hate it
